Pure genius! I had my agent hit the endpoint and I realized it returned a jumble of text: "if 七 wor~kers co.mplet/e{ | a job in 十七} days but 四 ] quit a^ft|e?r ^ day_ 三 ~ how many to{tal da[y;s> to fin>i?sh" but it was in japanese! Unfortunately my agent proceeded to solve the reverse CAPTCHA and got back the API key. So, I asked it to keep hitting the endpoint again until it returned another CAPTCHA that was in japanese kanji and it did (without solving it this time) and I got "a s:tore h?as ^ 二十 pe@rcent off< items- over 五十 : dollar;s and 八 ~ percent } of\f> ; i]te[ms u~nd~er: # 五十 do/ll@ars wh-ats } the c.omb>ined pri|c;e of a 一 百 二十 一 dollar item a]nd> a* 九 dollar} i!tem" And this time I was able to translate that into "a store has 20 percent off items over 50 dollars and 8 percent off items under 50 dollars what's the combined price of a 121 dollar item and a 9 dollar item?" I solved it and got 1210.8 + 90.92 = 105.08. I will admit I messed up a little bit on translating the kanji and I got a little assistance from my agent pointing out that I was wrong, but overall this was good fun, well done!
Absent any distinctive Japanese scripts or other Japanese writing in context, it probably makes more sense to call those Chinese characters, since those characters for numbers were taken directly from Chinese and still retain the same/original meanings in both languages
Very clever and fun. Two tangential observations: the bird between two trains problem I remember from childhood when we were studying for an Indian entrance exam. I thought it was in I E Irodov's problem anthology, but I cannot find it there so this must be a false memory. Looks like it's from ancient times, practically Mathematics mythology. Does anyone know the earliest books that have it? No luck with LLMs since it's such a common question today the answers I get from GPT-5.4 and Claude 4.6 Opus with search are unhelpful.
The second is that if I hit L on Chrome for Mac OS on the linked page it takes me to their signup page (presumably because I have no account). So that's a keyboard shortcut to take you to the browser-use app page. But why 'L'? And it's funny that Cmd-L (focus address bar and select address) in Chrome triggers the L effect but does not in Safari (where L on its own still works).
Well, when the moltbook story was everywhere, later people thought it was some big gotcha that "oh, they were actually humans."
So, showing true agent to agent interactions is interesting, but one could never be sure that's what you were actually seeing unless you were in control of all the agents.
> TL;DR: just ask your agent to summarize this post for you.
Holy shit - why don’t they produce an AI summary and plonk it in there for everyone to use? The energy savings across all people who’ll read the summary would be staggering!
Humans can use agents behind the scenes to crack it, right?

Great first impression!
Which LLMs best drive these? Claude/Gemini, etc., or is anything local actually competent at it?
Can they understand layout and visual cues with a VLM or multimodality?
Are they robust enough to interact with threejs and videos and whatnot, or can they just blindly navigate the DOM?
Is this just a marketing stunt?
Silly solutions for silly problems :^).
